My favorite photo of Rosa Dell Hann
This is my favorite photo of Grandma and her sister, Grandma is the younger one on the left and you can almost see the energy in her that she drew from all of her life...she's ready to get down and get moving.
More photos
I am adding some more photos here.
Seems like everyday I learn something new, and that includes how to display these photos in a size that they can be viewed easier. So, having said that, some of these are already here on the blog, but they deserve a closer look.
Thank you for visiting.

December 3, 1951 Letter from Rosa Fouts to Gimbel Family
This letter from Rosa Dell Hann Fouts to Orpha, Bud, Bob, Claudia and Rosemary was in with the letters that Orpha saved that her son Bob wrote to her and his Dad during the time he was in the army. If you would like to read his letters, please visit http://pocofish2.blogspot.com/

Dear Orpha, Bud, Bob, Claudia and Rosemary,
I hope this reaches you before Bob leaves. I sure would of loved to have seen him, in fact I think I am a little home sick.
I love the weather here but don't like it as it is so far from all you children.
We are about as usual.
Wish it was so you could come here while we are here.
We was to Glady's last Sunday. Willards was with us, we had a very nice visit. She wanted to get us some dinner but there were 7 of us but she made coffee and we had cake. Swell coffee to as yo know I broke my stem in mine (coffee percolator) before we left and have not bought any, so we make instant coffee, but I like perked the best.
If nothing happens we are leaving Saturday the 8th of December for California.
So if you answer right back return mail, I may not get it but air mail is I think just 1 day ahead of other mail.
You did not say when Bob was leaving for California, we are going to be around San Bernadino, that's where Uncle Henry Bowman lives.
Tell Bud, wages here are not so high but one don't use much fuel and no heavy clothes.
Did Rosemary know Bob?
Oh Orpha, I have very little paper. I forgot to get a tablet and my, I sure write a lot.
Yes, Orpha, I will be praying and praying and please, Orpha, you and bud don't get sick over Bob leaving. I feel he will be safe. I have faith and faith is what counts. The Lord can take care of us better than we can, so we must trust in him.
I too, saw where they are talking peace, I believe we will have it as I think the Russians are beginning to think if they don't do something pretty soon, we will be obliged to use the atom bomb and they don't want their soil all blowed up.
What is Claudia doing? Is she getting ready for Christmas entertainment at school?
You know I told you we went to Gladis and Willard went a long, well we got us a few small cactus and we was not supposed to get them. Then we did not hardily know how to get rid of them but we did. You are not supposed to get them. They are government property but we did not see where it was posted. Well, we have learned better. Gladys told us.
Well Orpha, I want to say so much that probably I won't say anything.
I got a letter from Mrs. Hardy and they are planning on going to Florida.
Dad likes it here a lot better than I do or at least he says so.
I wrote Merle and Joyce both a letter, I hope they have it now.
My it seems months since I saw you children.
We are on a very busy road, if I wasn't I would die from lonely.
Well, I'll be good but if I get too lonely, I will come home, cold, snow, rain or shine. It won't make any difference.
Take good care of yourselves and don't worry too much about Bob and us. We will all be fine and all be home safe and sound someday.
Lots of love to Orpha, bud and the Sweet Children.
Kisses to all and take care of yourselves.
Mother and Dad.
